IEEE Symposium on Computational Intelligence for Financial Engineering and Economics (IEEE CiFer) - Call For Papers

IEEE SSCI is recognized for cultivating the interchange of state-of-the-art theories and sophisticated algorithms within Computational Intelligence Applications. The Symposia foster an environment that facilitates future inter and intra collaborations.

IEEE SSCI 2025 offers a newly restructured biennial Symposia Series featuring ten dedicated Applied Computational Intelligence Symposia, including IEEE CiFer.

Late Submission Opportunities

IEEE SSCI 2025 offers several submission options for late-breaking research:

• Late-Breaking Papers: Submit an extended abstract of up to 2 pages to share preliminary research, ideas, or critiques, fostering interactive discussions.
• Poster-Only Submissions: Submit a short abstract (up to 250 words) to present early-stage concepts or challenges for constructive feedback.
• Journal to Conference (J2C) Submissions: Provide a summary (up to 1 page) of recent journal articles relevant to SSCI themes, promoting broader engagement with your research.

For more instructions on each kind of submission including page limitations and submission format, please see submission instructions.

Late breaking papers	Extended abstracts with a "prequel" to provoke novel conversations for future work or ideas to emerge, or with a "sequel" to a prior research contribution, or with a discussion to alert the community of important topics	Up to 2 pages, including references, if any.	For presentation at the conference but not to be included in the proceedings.	Poster
Abstract (poster-only) submission	Abstracts may involve, e.g., novel insights, or new ideas which may not have been fully tested yet, or presentation of challenges posed by a given domain that could benefit from computational intelligence	Up to 250 words	For presentation at the conference but not to be included in the proceedings.	Poster
Journal to conference (J2C)	Papers accepted at IEEE Transactions journals sponsored by CIS and first appeared in IEEEXplore within the past 2 years	Up to 1 page listing bullet points with the highlights of the paper, and an explanation on why you believe the paper to be relevant to SSCI	For presentation at the conference but not to be included in the conference proceedings.
